36.8 official. this is a fish that really shouldn't have happened for me. being the idiot that i am, i completely forgot to reregister my car this month and got pulled over on my way to fish at around midnight. trooper told me that I'd be towed and went back to his car to call it in. came back and told me that he wasn't going to have me towed (i'm guessing there was no truck available at the time) and instructed me to drive right home and reregister on-line. so i'm 10 minutes from where i was gonna fish and 45 minutes from home and dejected. it occured to me to swing by my mom's house (only 20 min. away) and register from there so I did and ended up only losing about an hour of fishing time. i'm glad i thought of that and didn't just call it a night.

Somehow those trips that don't go perfectly always seem to end up the best.

I almost get nervous when things go TOO well prior to hitting the water.

And then you get a fish on the first cast.

Do you fish the rigged like the lives with a slow retrieve or do you have to impart a little action on them.

Once again my curiosity is peaked

Board updated....incorrectly......
Josh's fish puts us up nicely. RISSA is listed with our total points 30 more points than their fish total. Well, at least the kid they must have doing updates will be in school again very soon.

Well then you do the math, take a look at what's posted, and tell me whether you would be willing to have someone on your payroll with that job performance. It is just a rant about the state of the American worker, and American schooling that probably belongs in the Grumpy forum.

Looks like they have updated Rob Taylor to 1st place..
I also noticed Mike(redlite) got another 40..posted 8/20
I think that gives him somewhere around 200 lbs..incredible numbers..Certainly worth a mention.too bad for you guys he can only post 2 fish towards the team total..
John would be changing his name to Mike..

Hey the guy works for a fishing Magazine..
I don't think you had to be a math major to do that.Just as I don't have to be a english major to post on the internet..
I would imagine the paperwork flooding in..He already has regular duties.Now he has this mess to sort thru.As long as they get it rightin the end is all that matters..

Could have been that it was just put in the wrong cell in a spreadsheet I doubt he's figuring everythng out with a paper and pencil. How do you know that its the guy running the tournament and not the company thats hosting/maintaining the website that got it wrong....and its no big deal as long as it is right at the end.

I've had to call the guy twice already to fix a couple of things that weren't his fault but made the website. one was a slip he got that was filled out wrong (had the weight in the length field and vica versa) and one where a fish was caught on a boat and was entered incorrectly as a surf fish. Guy that brought it to the weigh station even made sure to tell the guy it was a boat fish but the slip still went in as a surf, he saw it on the website and told me about it so I could straighten it out.

I'm sure that we aren't the only group this is happening to so The guy is probably dealing with it on a daily basis considering the size of the tournament.

If you see something wrong just give the guy a call and bring it to his attention....he'll fix it.
